The world at her feet, the future unwritten. Much loved. Much thought of. Much willing on from stage right and stage left.

May you always speak out and up, may you always still rise and persist, no matter the good, bad or denial you may come across in others. May you be freer with each passing day and may you be lucky enough to chance upon rare, wonderous, worldly, compassionate peers to explore the rest of your life and this world with.

May every future birthday be filled with life, love, family and true friends...and cats and dogs and snackables....
